Counterattack 1990

Chen Dong woke up and found himself reborn in 1990, a time when gold was everywhere. Carrying the regrets of his past life, he started by selling tea eggs...

Financial crises, oil crises, gra...

Chapter 597 Don't put all your eggs in one basket!

"If you're willing and want to join, I can help you get in touch; it'll be done very quickly."

Li Xiaoman stared intently at Chen Dong and continued speaking.

"Of course, I know you must have your own investment channels, but you have to give me a chance to show off."

As she said this, the coquettish tone was quite obvious.

Chen Dong didn't know what to say, so he just looked at her quietly.

Li Xiaoman could only curse him inwardly as "blockhead".

"I've noticed you've been doing less financial trading lately. Is it because you're not having enough energy?"

"If that's the case, you can give some of your funds to Barings Securities and let that trader handle it for you."

"In this way, you won't have to spend too much time on finance, and you can focus more on the real economy."

Having said that, Chen Dong couldn't help but express his gratitude for Li Xiaoman's deep affection, simply saying, "Thank you, you've really cared about me too much."

However, he certainly wouldn't agree to Li Xiaoman's suggestion.

If you already know there's a trap ahead, why jump in anyway?

Li Xiaoman was unaware that Li Chendong was a reincarnated person, nor was she aware that in the past year, Chendong had not only not stopped investing in finance, but had actually increased his investment efforts.

The only difference is that Chen Dong used to keep all his money in HSBC, but now he has spread it out.

This led Li Xiaoman to believe that Chen Dong's financial activities over the past year had not been so frequent.

Chen Dong did this because he didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket.

In the past, he had created some crises for himself by keeping all his money in HSBC.

To be precise, it wasn't really a crisis, but rather that the excessive attention he received caused him some inconvenience and trouble.

In fact, Li Xiaoman's rise to power was not unrelated to Chen Dong.

That was last year, when Chen Dong was trading oil futures, when he was targeted by the former president of HSBC's Hong Kong headquarters.

The CEO discovered that Chen Dong was exceptionally skilled in finance and had made a lot of money, so he decided to follow suit.

He followed Chen Dong's lead and made corresponding investments, including Chen Dong's capital movements and futures trading strategies, and bought more shares accordingly.

Unexpectedly, after assessing the market situation, Chen Dong sold off all his holdings and then withdrew from the market.

But the CEO was still not giving up, or rather, he was insatiable.

He thought Chen Dong was too timid and didn't dare to continue investing, letting go of such easy money.

He also mocked Chen Dong in several places and insisted on being bullish.

As a result, he caused HSBC to lose a lot of money.

This resulted in the president being dismissed, and Li Xiaoman benefited by becoming the president of HSBC's Hong Kong headquarters.

"So you agree?" Li Xiaoman stared at Chen Dong with her beautiful eyes, full of anticipation.

Chen Dong shook his head. "No, I won't agree."

Li Xiaoman's face showed disappointment. "How could you do this? I meant well, but it was all for nothing."

Zhu Yuehua also showed a look of surprise.

She truly hadn't expected that Chen Dong would refuse such a good opportunity without hesitation.

However, since she was new to the financial securities industry, she felt unfamiliar with and unaware of many things, so she was very cautious, as if she were walking on thin ice or facing an abyss.

In the field of financial investment, Chen Dong is undoubtedly a senior and an expert, so she wanted to ask if Chen Dong knew any inside information.

"Mr. Chen, what's wrong? Is there some problem with this?"

Li Xiaoman, as expected of the president of HSBC, was also very knowledgeable in finance and equally perceptive.

After hearing Zhu Yuehua ask that question, she realized what was going on.

Her beautiful eyes were fixed on Chen Dong, and she stared at him quietly, waiting to see what he would say.

Upon seeing this, Chen Dong couldn't help but smile slightly.

These two are truly remarkable; they deserve to be called elite women.

With their sensitivity and vigilance regarding external information, coupled with their status and family background, achieving success is indeed quite easy for them.

Ordinary people, limited by their own abilities, as well as the circles and environments they live in, are unable to view things from a holistic perspective when faced with problems, and they have no opportunity to come into contact with highly intelligent people, which makes it impossible for them to make correct judgments.

Furthermore, many people, even if they can make the right judgments, are unable to utilize their abilities because they either lack money, resources, or connections.

Ultimately, they can only display their talents within a small circle, limited by the infighting and backstabbing within that circle, and are unable to reach higher levels or larger stages.

Moreover, as time goes by, if a person cannot break through, he will become increasingly limited by that small circle, and his vision will become narrower and narrower.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Dong decided to reveal some of the information he had learned to them.

Of course, you must be careful not to reveal your identity as a reincarnated person. Instead, you should choose a roundabout, inferential, or suggestive method to arouse their vigilance.

So he leaned back in his chair, a tactical backward lean, crossed his hands, and rested them on the back of his head, appearing relaxed yet giving off an air of inscrutable mystery. A slight smile played at the corners of his lips.

The smile seemed somewhat sinister to Zhu Yuehua and Li Xiaoman.

Seeing Chen Dong like this piqued their interest even more.

Li Xiaoman pouted, "Alright, stop pretending and just tell me."

"Mr. Chen, what can you teach me? Please don't hesitate to teach me!" Zhu Yuehua looked at Chen Dong and pleaded softly.

"Alright, since you're so sincere, I'll give you some pointers." Chen Dong smiled and sat up straight.

"Let me ask you a question: what is the most important thing when we're making investments?"

Is it a risk, a reward, or something else?

Li Xiaoman pursed her lips and said, "Is that even a question? You're testing us with such a simple question. Who do you think you are?"

Of course, even though she said that, she still tried hard to think about it.

Zhu Yuehua also frowned, lost in deep thought.

She felt that Chen Dong shouldn't ask them such simple questions.

After a while.

Li Xiaoman spoke first: "I think the most important thing is to make money and preserve capital."

Chen Dong neither confirmed nor denied.

Zhu Yuehua continued, "I think the most important thing is risk control."

Chen Dong looked at them and nodded, "What you said is both right and wrong!"

"Investing is, of course, about making money. And the most important thing in that is risk control."

"Whether you're making short-term or long-term investments, you need to pay attention to risk control. In other words, you need to survive long enough in the market."

In other words, if you don't even have the capital, how will you make money?
